I've always had a philosophical issue with numbers. It's not that I'm bad at math (although, spoiler alert: I am), it's that the concept of numbers doesn't fully make sense to me. My mom loves telling the story of how she tried teaching me addition when I was a little kid. She lined up some apples and started explaining: "This is one apple." Sure, fine. Then she placed a second apple next to it and said, "Now we have two apples." That's when my brain short-circuited.

"Is it because they're next to each other?" I asked. My mom sighed, "No, it's just… two apples… together. That's just how numbers work. anyway, if I add another one it's three apples" At this point, I asked if I'd have to memorize all the new words for every possible combination of apples. She laughed; I did not. To this day, I struggle with the idea that "two" even exists. Either something is, or it isn't—1s and 0s. Honestly, the philosophers out there might agree with me.

Anyway, these 33 science memes are for people like me—those who love the concept of science but prefer laughing at the universe's mysteries instead of solving them with math. Enjoy!

    Dear Professor Cox, What would happen if you filled the Large Hadron Collider with feta? Dennis Cartilage, Ashford Brian says: "Well, I wouldn't recom- mend it, Dennis. I once left half a Peparami and a can of Lilt in there by accident, and their particles collided within the machine to create a grapefruit-flavoured sentient sausage measuring 26 miles in length. It took three months to destroy the hideous abomination, and you wouldn't believe the bollocking I got off the CERN president af- terwa

    6th grade I forgot the science fair was next day. 10pm in a panic, I find a loaf of molded bread my pops forgot to throw out. Made a study on mold, moisture & air. Got 2nd place in the school. 5th in the city. Bread so moldy I was praised for "conducting weeks of research".
